“…In our study, the mean LLL of type II and III were significantly greater than that of type I but the MS and SS types and the LLL were not significantly correlated. Kayabasi, et al 3) observed that the pneumatization defects of MS, FS, and SS were related to deeper olfactory fossa and longer lateral lamella. In their study, the mean LLL of the FS aplasia group was 6.53±1.78 mm, 5.98±1.94 mm in the FS hypoplasia group, and 4.28±1.52 mm in the control FS group (p<0.001).…”

“…There is limited literature between the relation of the degree of FS pneumatization and the development of the PNS structures. [1][2][3][4] Lateral lamella length (LLL) and olfactory fossa depth are important anatomical parameters to be considered in preventing surgical complications like skull base injury. Greater LLL increases the possibility of lateral lamella injury during the surgery.…”

Background and Objectives It is necessary to understand the variations of the paranasal sinuses (PNS) and other anatomical structures during an endoscopic sinus surgery (ESS). The purpose of this study was to investigate any association between the degree of frontal sinus (FS) pneumatization and the development of the PNS structures. Subjects and Method We analyzed 311 PNS computed tomography (CT) scans (622 sinuses, including the left and right sides). We classified FS into type I (aplasia), type II (hypoplasia), and type III (control). We assessed and compared the middle turbinate pneumatization (MTP), superior turbinate pneumatization (STP), agger nasi cell (ANC), infraorbital cell (IOC), optic nerve (ON) type, and vidian nerve (VN) type with the pneumatization of the FS. We further studied for any association between the degree of pneumatization of the FS, maxillary sinus (MS), and sphenoid sinus (SS) and the lateral lamella length (LLL). Results MTP, ANC, and IOC rates according to the FS types were not significant (p>0.05). Both type II and III showed more frequent occurrences of STP than type I (p=0.005). The ON type III and IV were significantly frequent in the FS type III (p<0.001). The occurrence of VN type III in the FS type I was significant (p<0.001). When comparing the pneumatizations of FS with MS or SS, there were no significant correlations between them (p>0.05). In the FS type II and III, the LLL was significantly greater than in type I (p<0.001). Conclusion Increased FS pneumatization shows greater indentation of ON and VN into the SS, as well as increased LLL. During ESS, it is important to recognize the possibility of structural damage of ON, VN, and LLL according to FS pneumatization.

Ambiguous “olfactory” terms for anatomic spaces adjacent to the cribriform plate: A publication database analysis and quest for uniformity

A precise nomenclature and terminology is the foundation of communication in Anatomy and related biomedical sciences. The olfactory bulbs and nerves lie above and below the cribriform plate (CP), respectively. Hence, many anatomical landmarks in this region have names adopting the term "olfactory" as qualifiers. Ambiguous use of these "olfactory" terms exists, with some potential repercussions on patient treatments. We performed a publication database analysis to determine the frequency of misuse of names for seven anatomical "olfactory" spaces close to the CP and nasal cavity. We searched PubMed ® publications having the keyword "olfactory" in their title or abstract, plus one of seven other keywords: "groove", "fossa", "recess", "cleft", "vestibule", "sulcus", and "cistern". We reviewed all abstracts for accuracy of these terms relative to accepted norms or customary definitions. By February 2020, we found all these keywords in 1255 articles. For the terms olfactory "groove" and "fossa", the number of relevant articles (and percentage of those inaccurately using these terms) were 374 (1.1%), and 49 (8.2%), respectively. All 52 abstracts containing "olfactory" and "vestibule" were irrelevant, relating to the "nasal vestibule" and olfactory function, instead of "olfactory vestibule". Overall, terms used to describe "olfactory" spaces near the CP are seldom ambiguous or inaccurate, but the terms olfactory "groove" and "fossa" are occasionally misused, We propose several new "olfactory" terms for inclusion in the Terminologia Anatomica, and stress the need for uniform nomenclature leading to greater consistency and accuracy in clinical use of anatomical terms containing the word "olfactory" as a descriptor.anatomic landmarks, anterior cranial fossa, ethmoid bone, nasal cavity, turbinates 1 | INTRODUCTION Nomenclature provides a system of names or terms, as well as the rules for forming these names in a particular field. The importance of standard nomenclature is understandable and clear-it is to facilitate communication (Neumann et al., 2020); and this should apply to all scientific disciplines. For instance, regarding errors in chemical nomenclature, Eller (2006) has stated, "… it seems to be tedious and unacceptable for any reader to waste his time with futile or even misleading names".Terminologia Anatomica (TA) is the international standard on human anatomical terminology, containing the terms for about 7500 human gross anatomic structures (Kachlik et al., 2008). In Anatomy, This paper has not been published and it is not under consideration for publication elsewhere.
